Prime_BASS Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 is it possible, not seen or heard of anyone trying it but I see a few headless bridge and head kits. If so what would it entail? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mart Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Can be done, and has been done. I remember somebody converting a Thumb into a headless bass (to improve the balance), but I can't find a proper link, only this thread on talkbass: [url="http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f57/beheading-project-turn-standard-bass-into-headless-one-602828/"]http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f57/beheading-project-turn-standard-bass-into-headless-one-602828/[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 (edited) Hi Stephen Most headless systems require a zero fret which may prove a problem if you're starting with a fretted neck..a fretless could be a better starting point and could be fretted if required.. Try contacting Mark Wood (who's in Nottingham) who built my headless custom (B1222C): [email="[email protected]"][email protected][/email] [url="http://www.mwood-guitars.webs.com/apps/photos/"]http://www.mwood-gui...om/apps/photos/[/url] Edited February 12, 2012 by TheGreek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
